Ichiro Hattori, the Stubborn Craftsman who Never Compromises to any quality issues
He is now 70 years old. His knife making career has started at the age of 18, when he joined his
farther's kitchen knife factory "Masahiro" in Seki. In 1971, he has opened his own workshop and
started producing his own brand high quality kitchen knives and hunting knives. The "Hattori"brand
knives have quickly gained great reputations from the end users both in domestic and overseas for
the finest workmanship.
In the final finishing work, he gives his special care to check every detail, blade grinding and
polishing flows, warping, angles and handle shaping, fitting etc etc... Every knife that does not meet
with his strict quality standard, is returned to be reworked from the begining or thrown away.
His "Never Compromise" attidude to seek the finest workmanship has made him called as
"World's Best Knife Craftsman". He was also honored to receive "Excellent Skilled Craftsman
Award" from Seki Knife Industrial Association. When you hold his knife in hand and actually use
it, you will know and admit that he really deserve
it.
We would like everyone to experience his fine work, but his production is very limited due to the
time consuming hand works. We will try to maintain as many inventories as possible, and will update
the inventory condition everyday. If however you find your knife not in stock,
please email
us for next availability and
reservation. |
